PC Requirements is an absolute masterpiece! One of my top 5 favourites!
-
‘Vanquish’ is easily one of the best games of the 7th generation. Just incredible
-
Vanquish is such a badass game. It deserved to sell far more than it did.
-
Mad Max & Sleeping Dogs for me. Probably two of the best 15-20 games that I have ever played.
-
Mad Max hand combat was cool, but honestly I think the car driving, car combat, engine roars, etc, were done SO WELL. I'm a huge fan of the movies, so finally I felt like I was actually controlling The Road Warrior
-
Mad Max and Days gone are some of the best games I've ever played.
-
'Sleeping Dogs' is a criminally underrated single player game. It's over 12 years old and has aged really well.
-
Daysgone is amazing game

PC Requirements is such an underrated gem. 6:52 But seriously, I own at least half of these games because of videos praising them and giving them their due spotlight that major outlets and general word of mouth didn’t.

Played mad max last year, had an absolute blast. Also went back and got the plat on days gone while playing on the hardest difficulty. Need a sequel 😢
-
Don't forget Singularity a 360 game sadly not backwards compatible..
-
Days gone is so amazing, but the fps issue when it came out, really hurt it. However, a must play underrated game
-
I know it's been on plenty of lists like this before, but man, Eidos Montréal's Guardians Of The Galaxy game is still one of the best singleplayer games I've played in the last ten years. The gameplay is solid, but it's the visuals, acting, and writing that make it so special. I genuinely ended up preferring their versions of the characters over the film versions, especially Star-Lord. The game's sales were arguably hurt by the deserved critical failure of the Avengers game.

I'm really happy that you mention trails in the sky. Thank you guys.
-
Scars Above is really underrated
-
Man it just hurts the heart how they didn’t give Days Gone a sequel!! I still wish Sony would give us fans a second days gone..
-
In its final state, Days Gone is the most underrated game of the PS4 generation. In my personal top 5 easily. It just gets better and better as the game progresses.
-
Mad Max was such an awesome game. One of my favorite game worlds ever. Sometimes I’d forget about the storyline, hop in my custom ride and just go cause some mayhem for a few hours😂
-
My favorite underrated single player game is The Solus Project. It has some survival elements, but the story is festinating, the graphics are very good, and the music fits the atmosphere perfectly.
